NHC 2010 medal winning recipes

A wee while down the track but are there any willing placegetters or medallists from NHC 2010 who are happy to share their recipes in the spirit of inspiring up-and-comers or plain wannabes?

The judging comments seemed to point towards a lower standard of entries as a whole last year - but there must have been some gems with new and interesting innovations amongst the rabble ....lets hear about them for the sake of lifting the bar in 2011!

      All of mine are in the "What are you brewing" thread already, nothing to hide! :)

       

      NZ Pils got a Silver (hop rocker clone) and US Coal a bronze (and that was a f**k up!).

      Just saw this thread.

       

      Here's a link to a Belgian Blonde recipe that I got a gold medal for, enjoy:

      Personally, I'd reduce the inverted sugar next time down to about two thirds of what the recipe says.
